youjizz on Facebook and Twitter at focus 580 what are your favorite films of the year

the Year at the movies that you like to see win Oscars on Sunday night my love to hear from you Austin

let’s talk a few minutes about your role as GM of the art

talking bad about trying to feed audience is this time of year ARM what movies are nominated

sleep late last several weeks at the Art Theater on talk about how difficult is trying to land

ups on many films once they are on the Western on Asians are when I pee after

00:02:15

after water cycle water something like that sure well the art like most movie theaters has

as profitability that kinda goes in waves all have certain seasons a really good for movies

movies in others with your not so good enough to case with a big movie chains as well as us

now December thru February or March maybe even a little bit later tonight

is a golden time for us because films are getting a lot of marketing behind

behind them some of that is the Oscars a lot of that is the Oscars on you have studios that are

what are releasing films around that time in case you didn’t notice about the Best Picture nominees but most of them release

00:02:50

release the past few months there’s a lot of attention being paid those films

sounds there’s a lot of conversation going on about the something in the case were there is some really worth discussing

cursing and that helps us because it’s a bowl encourages us to bring in

films that a larger groups of people want to say so in this past year

we was a good year for us in that we were able to show a number of the Best Picture nominees

Philomena s*** her Dallas buyers club Nebraska

I’m so that the majority the best picture last year it was a really different situation

00:03:25

and playing those eyes is something that we try to do but we’re not always

always able to pick up sometimes the films are not right for audience or the distributor

just want to give them to ice or were busy playing other phones like the best foreign language feature nominees

Japanese about stocks or someone off the smart how to grease not ask you out before

before the program if there was anything that you want to bring in 2013 2013 you said

said you couldn’t you said no but you said it was frustrating in terms of release dates

enanas I have some something to do with the fact that the New York in LA in Chicago

00:04:00

I’ll go get some things are Leah and I you just have to fight to bring you something when you can you can show them

yeah I mean running a single strand theater what we do has a host of challenges to it up

we can really up for playing a big film generally we can only show that someone

not able to do shows about a film so you have to keep a film for as long as it able to draw an audio

and sometimes you get a situation where you want to open a few films

what are all opening on the same day that happened in late October when 12 years a slave

kill your darlings enuff sad and I think another phone we’re all released and I knew there was no way

00:04:35

so we had to go out with make decisions based on what is wanted what distributor

wanted negotiating those relationships another kind of things up I was wondering how

how you first team to love movies was there was something that you saw the child are some just Vermont

Washington ring on it you can remember watching movies that to becoming a big fan

I think most Americans like movies was apart of Michael Cho educators

my dad was a big part of that I was reflecting on the past week to think about my crush

micrite area for something I really like in one of the best compliment my my dad

00:05:10

my dad would give to a film as different so you know he said he watched

watch something that we change your are some art films and he would say

what’s a good it was different and I would always know well okay there’s a sign of

because it doesn’t fit into the usual node and then I also started

patronizing a small video store kind of like that’s rentertainment in Sarasota Florida

never people there who I were staffing got a new so much about something tonight I’ve never met anybody

who knew what is my Chinese objective they know about something a really a guide me through

00:05:45

through learning more about of foreign films at work currently being released classics a kind of things

things have you looked you look for reviews that one way you help determine what

what I like to get ahold of that on for things that have just coming out the festival

something Eric are the Gaslight Sundance something like why can’t wait till that comes out

there are films that I get excited about their certainly if you that I read great stuff about it

Sundance on this year but really up my program

programming has a lot to do with how films are doing in box office terms and if it needs to crack

00:06:20

criteria that are audiences looking for so it’s less about what I find to be really value

valuable as a film about there are films that I choose on that I think will do well but

but I have a personal reason behind not on but for the most part it has to do with

Espino is the sum doing well in somewhere market stars that something that the audience with come out to see

anion what’s your to your thoughts on on the lead role the Oscars playing

play in the same meaning as its kind of frustrated Mike Wallace has 6 nominations

gotta play this search what do you think it place in the what you I know what you’re going to do

00:06:55

what are going to decide to show and in what year was about the Oscars over all I have not made a state

secret my ID taste for the Oscars in general as an institution

I basically using like I use them as as any other marketing platform so if I filmed

what I would like to show gets alot of Oscar nominations that’s great for us because that means more people come to see it

set on it can be frustrating for me around this time because her

got the Best Picture nomination because Philomena dead I was able to bring those

does back also because I felt the Dozen films while mainstream in a certain sounds

00:07:30

Ulta really high quality in there something that are audience wanted to see if they were filmed something to say

site to play those other forms of here that was snubbed that I would like to played for

blade Fruitvale station is one that I thought was really amazingfilms what is completely left out

12 years a slave is one plate at a maze ing press everywhere in

despite the fact that is been out in the two megaplex is in town for months

month alarm for 10 to just be friends with your twitch II preciate in a sentence

hot and so we were able to play that and I see the conversations

00:08:05

Asians that that came about afterword what movie had the best running 2013 rut 2013

13 release forms very early mud mud which is another phone that was left out and I was it filmed

the film distributed by roadside attractions who are a distributor that I like they also did it

in the world which was a great comedy that we played over the summer that also was left out

winning the Best Original Screenplay that can I believe it all is lost

which which subject of a kind of micro cinema controversy when Redford Robert Redford

read for the Starbucks on blamed on the distributor for not receiving the Best Actor nominations

00:08:40

Asian b*** mud was a surprise to people that was part of what people are calling is the McConnell

what kind of song is Matthew mccon a screw into the term I thought I’d invented but then I started singing the national

paper not absorb it from somewhere in Maryland beat out what was number 2

number to come over if you never close Nebraska did amazingly for SSI

adult bars couples really good inside Llewyn Davis another substance did really well for us

where talking about the year in film in 2013 and the Academy Awards

which are Sunday night in focus the number you can call 800 222

00:09:15

29455 where you can email it will talk in Illinois .edu so I mean

so I’m going to ask both our guest now I can bring erican for response one side for sale

Austin I do Oscars represent the views of the river viewers are

are the interest rate for series Ponce Napa interesting question and I

scientific answer um I would say it neither I was at the Oscars represent the Oscars

if we were going to work things based on box office totals then you get all the awards

words to Iron Man 3 in the lego movie and you go home yet a good night on at the same time if your

00:09:50

if you’re really thinking about awarding films of unusual aesthetic power

elephants and then I got the idea that we be turning to the Oscars any ideas

Italian in such a short period of time it’s hard to say

and this is not to say that I don’t respect the role of critics because I really reliant credit sand

and even in my own personal taste disable what are folks saying about these kinds of films

I like on the best of you know end of the year last warrior favorite films

um but I believe that what the Oscars are doing is serving Oscars

00:10:25

send that and that requires having a really high view worship so it requires nominating really big budget

budget films which are also determined by which Studios marketing those which also have these expensive

Spencer Oscar campaigns so its to me know there’s a whole backstage person of it that has little

little to do with the popularity are the relevance of film Eric Childress what are the Oscars represent for you

for you um what is the definition of question we Fraser

Spencer the Snowman over the years that the Oscars on the surly reflect taste

interviews of the people who are the majority of people who watch them Omand

00:11:00

that’s that’s true but I thinking the people that watch them would admit that you know that the film

film that make all the money every year Not Necessarily the best films of face off

from the past year I would like to think the afters a little bit more closer to reflecting

the industry 241 people voting on it

what are the people in the industry what is the opposite of put more 5 point on it

obvio Hollywood Noel always wants to make sure that they can look good

Largo last year I talk about college Dr Goza film what you know

00:11:35

no that’s actually about Hollywood free hostages get out so that it Naperville

how to make them look good if they were to know about 12 years a slave Best Picture this year

hear that film of all social relevance importance to make them look good there

there be no ethanol at my ring off a piece of crap like that

even if I think of something else is better builders somebody politics and

campaigning and things going after sometimes it all comes down to simply whose do

do Jews time it is supposed to be really gave the best performance at year

00:12:10

I surrender all sorts factors that go into what are the Oscars

ultimately represents what Eric a 1998

can do it put n as of the throat changes a few years ago talk about the

can you tell me about about why the Academy decided to do this in and for film abd interest

Christoph more people having your seven nations for Best Picture well it goes into that hole

idea of the Night Live on face satisfying the

the status quo the dealership but this is the place in 2009

00:12:45

fine I was wondering move to the few months remove really from a time when

everyone was kind of open arms 32 films from 2008

Jimmy chance at Best Picture and did not happen when was the Dark Knight

can a doctor nominations but nothing for picture directly into writing on the other one

what was Wally animals that for that stigma against you know animated films have there own cat

category but had been animated film Sense Media PA beasts to win

nominees for Best Picture all the sudden got 10 omniverse 2009 McLean

00:13:20

piano op. Is nominated for an Academy Award for Best Picture

picture of Pixar films are suddenly in the running toystory3 the following year

os so yeah it is outrageous that a film

the dark night with you so well respected by not just audiences by critics alike

I’m going to be like the planted by base with a campaign that The Weinstein Company put out for the reader

the reader that you’re really stuck la blah blah blah people wrong way I think

that was a huge deciding factor in why they decide to go up to

00:13:55

top to possibly 10 omniverse what is Eric who represents the

the Academy I mean certainly word stories before about movies

may not really be viewed by everyone that actually votes for the old

the case of the circle in the case I mean um the reason

reason that are sent out to the governing bodies

and what not to the status screeners and sometimes you know your stories about people

people give them to the secretary giving them there after ballots and stuff like that

00:14:30

fruit with whisper campaigns like that um something people vote for the friends the vote for

Furby no no altar all different kinds reasons why people

vote the way they do um so I need to have to say the Oscars represent

the best we get from movie the movie your is not certified

never been a case even if you know every once in awhile a broken clock is correct ahso yeah

yeah  sup what are the most undeserving nominations what what some of the

the movie that may be your little overrated did your left palm

00:15:05

what is it to me one motoring offences actually told me to slave to me I think I think a good film

this guy moments of grey Power Star acting on display

play me the third act of the film where Brad Pitt turns into a white

no white Jesus and its been awhile since we free the slaves the way you did the zombie apocalypse early this year

what year or last year did the didn’t quite Ring true there is there something false

all about that concern the fact that he was also producer on the film made him with very

very good osa 2014 not I pop my last IL

00:15:40

Number the films on the farm at least we’re nothing like gravity in her

Nebraska American hustle wolf of Wall Street things ain of Ariel

good comedy really says much about

Wall Street that we haven’t seen and other films that happened haven’t been nominated

nominated for Academy Awards the Four Seasons made film a couple times RI

is already in some people in our third of a anti American hustle

hustle all because of the sword of the Spirit is how to choose between American hustle or wolf of Wall Street

00:16:15

Wall Street you couldn’t like both of them for some reason you have to be on one sensor the other

I am some people criticize American hustle deal with the fall Scorsese

the film when the phone is actually wolf of Wall Street  what what

what we’re going to go here to a clip from gravity of which Amelia Island on DVD this weekend

can some of the people can finally catch up with some nominated films Nebraska also came out on video

this weekend this is the scene with Sandra Bullock gravity



00:16:50



and

and the children your reaction for seeing that film all the for sumsung gravity

gravity was pretty blown away I thought of the Toronto Film Festival autopro biggest penis

screen possible in 3d on and off of the Christmas ship a bath film

film and Beyond in 83 minutes long the Packers much are nachos spectacle

00:17:25

tickld emotional weight of Sandra Bullock brought the performance

best films of last year deserve the word of mouth receiving theatres the mall of money is made

what made the accolades in Searcy the number for my top 10 list and out of love

varial movie I’m hoping is going to win lobsters Sunday night

I actually I’ve got your top 20 list out in front of me on my mother was I born

another program a 10 hour OSHA gas Austin mansion inside Llewyn Davis

Davis which is number 10 on your list of states and we’ll talk about someone some

00:18:00

some snaps in terms of the Oscar nominations yeah that was Hurley one that was one of them

film the day of a cone cone brothers have an affair with the Oscars in going back to far

the Fargo oz in the last few years no country for old men 1001 the best picture

picture of serious man was up for Best Picture true grits with for Best Picture

inside Llewyn Davis was pretty do universities love by credits of the smaller

smaller film not the end of the Oscar Isaac exactly household name

Brothers film so I thought that was going to be held

00:18:35

how to film to Masons eyes not the winds and lube

down the stretch after the credits have their say the guilds in order for some reason they didn’t

Ahmet for picture best picture writing are part of directing

awesome dominos and Benzino it double to nominate shins

the afters about the big snob ever won the Best Actor race

FRS were some of the biggest numbers were Tom Hanks for Captain Phillips ranch Robert Redford

Rick Ross lost I get throwing Joaquin Phoenix for her in there but the thing about the best actor

00:19:10

stack the races that you look at those three performances in the other 5 performances

you could put all doll 8 a.m. In a blender and spit out 5 and Alton

American people complain about those 50 you could anyone and the other 5

Bible store bend I deserve and so it is hard to know

how to be upset if you got the laptop with best tactical is a very strong last

Austin what’s your taken but their kids had to say about films are snobs

nobdy films that the s*** out of the dick maybe get on deserving vote because

00:19:45

because they haven’t actually seen it up what you’re taking a talk about your not true about the Oscars begin with

weather in right on I’m glad we have known the program Yaya

you know it’s interesting I I’m just wonder you know

you know if the magic of we live in a society were some like short term 12 Best Picture

you know or a even before midnight and those are films which are

which are smaller you know they’re not interested I in a lot of the subject

TaxACT Best Picture nominee for friends concert in public by young people and at em

00:20:20

it’s about young people in really difficult situations abs brie Larson is the star that she’s not

is not exactly household name even know she was in a bunch of the best films that came out last year

and I wonder you know in looking at something you know there was

there was a lot of really great editorializing inside Llewyn Davis

Davis where the film wasn’t nominated for an Oscar in part of the reasons that the actual content of the

the film is opposed to the idea of the Oscars in other films about artistic failure

films about on confronting a commercial situation which is bigger than you

00:20:55

even if I’m not getting anything away in the phone when I say that there’s a scene for the end where I figure

figure is clearly Bob Dylan is playing at a focal up as a dejected into feet

defeated Oscar Isaac is walking out of this moment of realizing you can try your hardest

hardest to make something worthwhile but there’s something bigger than you that is actually in control here

message is a little tube leak a little too damming for it to be

the kind of thing put out on the national state what inside Llewyn Davis not a real intricate

intricate plot summary they want something just waiting here having season of these movies they want something

00:21:30

something heavier the big booty big problem with that is that I didn’t get back song

song nominations we can all agree for outer space you know they decided that thing was a parody

Paradiso wasn best song accept come on with her better song in the NFL in 2013

so I was also wondering if your children about the the marketing behind certain

movies short term for short term 12 which because of you in some your college

learn about in right about the self the video store we just need some films list

just not have the body to market them to get to the Academy st

00:22:05

how to get the first place yeah I’m in love with one things with holster

whats the screen rotation battle of the film critic who part of Chicago

Association we get screeners 21 we vote and the moon sees me and

dealing with Studios I’ve been trying to get people screeners to make sure the

sure they seem like short term 12 you just got you find out just how little a budget

how many small Studios have anyone the digital age now so I’ll lot of credits

can receive spinners on the computers and stuff like that I can download that home

00:22:40

supposed to have a dual mass mailing a send out DVDs and stuff

short term 12 from a small studio lights in a dime so we were able to get link something

things like that but you know sometimes your average asking voter piano made out of

what hurts the film they may not enough so we probably did not see the film did not to be off of wife

wide release it all even and odd big cities like in Chicago on what not ah

I am so it’s it’s it’s it’s really frustrating Nou to the time down 2

people see movies in all and you do that are not helping

00:23:15

what critics on Portland how to get movies like that out there and not getting a 225

25 topic but you know you look at the Oscars won spectrum any have you know about a group

Independent Spirit Awards where you think I feel my short term 12 what dominated because

because the way the rules are structured and the Bandit

what do I need to be fine tune you have basically all the films are up for Oscars

nominated there 12 years a slave Dallas buyers club blue jasmine because of know how

how small of budgets are there considered independent films 14 short term 12

00:23:50

12 LRP like a phone call upstream color odd don’t have the rapper

the representation in an independent film that they should

MFF you more trouble me the Masters of the Oscars for to represent in Albany

bigger contingent studios for war that you don’t see

you don’t see a lot of small studios I get a whole bunch of nominations

importunate app that something to that that I wasn’t

does intrigued by when Robert Redford made the statement about all is lost on not getting

00:24:25

getting dominated particular read for not being nominated and blaming the distributor for not having a proper

the proper release you know not making enough money for him to be nominated for an Oscar

Oscar which to me was amazing I thought while you’re just putting out there you know plane as the eye can see forever

everyone can see that that is something that’s going on and I feel like any of you know

how many parts are cultural body worth it stop it getting out of work needs to put the Prague

the people bowing to see the best stuff that you shouldn’t be about what is movie made hundred sixty million dollar

dollars so therefore you should go see that want to do in Oak don’t see anything released by cinema

00:25:00

cinema guildwork in a dime short term 12 Drafthouse act of killing like you

you actually need to go find something sound does a reverse shot does

alot of the smaller somebody that take the stuff really seriously do yeah I did a piece for

Roger Ebert outcome barrier Liam the word season already middle of the critical

Electric supports the word season what to talk about with a lot of films bad

when not sent on Spinner to Academy members feel like they like the way way back

the big hit from Sundance last year that out of your nose smaller Lisa Lisa

00:25:35

the summer of big limited release on a lot of people are very happy with

Mary please Sam Rockwell’s performance and you might have a chance Supporting Actor

nectar if the studio Haden brace that film and to put out there comes down to

down to the studio sometimes sort of you know nothing you one way

the films we want to promote or DC Oster sometimes

sometime your house a person get off at Best Actor nomination want to clean a supporting actor advice

vice versa because the studios want to steer you opt one direction sold

00:26:10

so they can maybe maybe clean up in another category they don’t want to crowd the field

all with the iron products sometime so it’s really important the way things like that play into

200 words Season plays out yeah I remember the way way back plate a week

the week the multiplier one of them in the area how to catch up on video about security

talking about marketing am NOT W Grady lindas category but there was the settlement of the name of the film

what does a religious theme song nominations the Yankee nominations

Asian & M and M’s interesting the marketing in the first place in the film film the People

00:26:45

people of heard of getting a nomination  I have never heard of it

when did Ben dominated the for something more

most people heard of it I think I might have come across it on like the elgible song list

just a timer number songs in film probably never heard before

also that was shot in Minnesota 2012

just talking about that the idea that the composer of the bath

that song was the qualified because he sent out emails to people in

00:27:20

in the music ranch and I don’t know if that says more about the fact that the music Branscome soy

so easily swayed by an email from a friend if they were just vote for

for a song but no one heard of and in about 10 minutes or the three categories come down

c** down on on a smaller film that no one heard of odd doing basically what

what are the other studios are doing anyway what is a lot of stuff to get to get in the

in the program I want to talk about documentaries but we’re going to take a break ur in the program

M&I Jeff Foster talking with Austin McCann general manager of the Arts Theatre in Champaign

00:27:55

champagne as well as WGN Radio anywhere.com Eric Childress about the

the 2013 Year in film and the Oscars I love your calls about that

the year Oscar predictions excetera ep 1 800 222 94550

it will dash talkin Illinois .edu Baltimore for brake on Jeff Potrykus is focus

amber back on focus on Jeff Bhasker talking with my guest today

today about the Academy Awards which are Sunday night Ararat Childress auto

what about the relationship between cancer and pastable Sundance with your address to few weeks

00:28:30

weeks ago and how this can affect the Oscars as well as the purchasing in and tails move

what movies is the distributed what Sundance is the breeding ground for you know if it’s really is

the independent staple of the year in sleep if the guy on the first big Festival

I have every year so you have steel studios in Byers out there

looking female 220 capitalize on making quick f*** out of you

if you feel small releases sometimes they hit Gold sometimes all you gotta do is

chase the Oscar on at few million dollars to your your take

00:29:05

Excel is there everyone is always better than look out for the for the best film that think

cynicism of the Oscars in quite very odd even home

this year the doctor festival started on the day that the Oscar nominations release Oakley

I was in India in the air and what not on this particular Samantha

this year did the 101 filmed at the jump out of people family

this is going to be a major player next year last year you have nothing

the way way back tickle talk about Rockwell Fruitvale station what you mentioned I

00:29:40

which was a big thing is here then came out in the summer right around the Train

Trayvon Martin scandal and the Vandellas

that was pretty quickly forgotten by the ones they have the Butler in an eighth of the focus again and again

can do other films like Philomena on August Osage County that sometimes I lost my shop

shop off but there’s always always thought of someone the back of the head something like this

this might be something that we can chase rewards what sucks about documentaries for bed

going to play next to play a clip from 20 feet from stardom

00:30:15

starting this is a clown bite of Sheryl Crow from the documentary one of the five nominated for Best Documentary

night  tomatoes no more heavily

bebe a great players can play sings it

remove people that the voice the one thing that we all are one

is there so many presents

kitchen pass

Sheryl Crow in a movie about backup singers 2120 feet from stardom

00:30:50

you don’t have some nice mark so where did this wind up in and it was the meteor reviews

reviews  think there’s anything vertically ground

groundbreaking a nice documentary but I think im a dime a dozen about that

especially when I go to South by Southwest is always with for 5 music dock that

how to talk about in a lot of the same subject matters

the sword of the dog in the back up singers of the singers that never quite got

Luanne Davidsons of the world to find a point on arm

00:31:25

film bats made my cut off the best documentaries

of the year the art of killing us only one of them and film that I didn’t

I didn’t get nominated that the number to film the occult stories we tell Thorpe Sarah pollies

wonderful documentary about her family and what they are you know the way to

weighted stories can change the world just by the way you tell them I think that’s that’s remarkable film

um so yeah I know I think twice I 20 feet from stardom is going to win

um to this kind of the start of the Academy friendly type a document

00:32:00

Metairie art of killing is a very hard watch so we’ll see how many people live

brave enough to get through that but that’s that’s why I think that’s going to win Sunday night

angry with him that the front is well act of killing yeah I thought a lot of weight

is was the most important that was released I haven’t seen any other film that did anything quite like that

does a don’t know that film is about these mass murderers in Indonesia who the direct

the director Joshua Oppenheimer I haz reenact in a kind of sickly playful way

away their crimes in this is coming about in the context of Oppenheimer trying to make a film

00:32:35

about these mass killings of communism in Indonesia and not being able to get any of the

survivors to speak so he thought well I’m going to go and speak to the perpetrators your stolen power

power made this D plan settling better mazing phone and I think the thing that I

that on the similarity between stories we tell and the act of killing and other documents

documentaries on my personal taser interesting is a dubler that line about truth

Laura treating us as a Stephen Colbert would say you have a sound like 20 feet from stardom witches

which is just telling you a story another feel like blackfish or dirty words to to another

00:33:10

mark that on the news stories we tell the act of killing which is also?

questioning the medium of the documentary on the Falmer playing at the art of the last of the unjust

just buy the Dragon Longman and record show up on other one where I

what these the act of storytelling a documentary which is based on this kind of Nesconset

misconception that you’re just telling truth it ends up being a little bit more artistically and politically

Oakley complex than that and that’s what’s really interesting to me yeah you know what happened

you put up to me before the show Austin that the stories we tell play two weeks at at the arch that’s that’s pretty

00:33:45

pretty remarkable for documentary Eric what happened with someone why didn’t get more attention

tension with without an HDMI really don’t know I mean when you have the day of the doctor recap

category like the fourth film category gets reduced down to you sexually does the

essential nominees and has 12 of films that were in the running

running for these five slots and stories we tell

I like it like you’re awesome sayings transcends that you’re so the nature of

Nile Delta documentary anthem of the art of narrative filmmaking is well

00:34:20

Oscar nominee before she’s not me for a way with her away away from her that the hard after screenplay

play Julie Christie was nominated at yours well sorry I don’t know I don’t know I mean it

if it out of house how to justify it really don’t like dirty wars in

2020 start’em which are not tell if a whole lot

about their something that we haven’t heard before I even on something like the simplest 60 minutes

00:34:55

its so I don’t know why I feel like that uh

what was over left eye don’t want to sound conspiratorial here but that’s another from those distributed by roadside attraction

tractions which which were compliation how to test your now soy in NBA

3913 on your list Eric what about the other on anyone out there

00:35:30

dial to be for Sunday if you wish on but the blessed life is like very much I made

what is it like that tells a story in abandoned very simple way

ama tall is a story that was important on and I was ripping and the Whale

and where was it was told it was better than just your average talking head

Dr Mary Wells transcend the form and buying stretch

did they have no problem with that being one of the finalists on the left

Best Buy Pinole the stories we tell this is interesting questions to me the idea of transcending

00:36:05

sending the form which is a you know a length of a term that make sense to me I’m done at the same time

the same time Eric really what were trying to do is to find a phone that requires the form right like what we want to

film that must be a documentary something like dirty wars you know it’s real

whats a really important subject I would be amazed to see what the acceptance speech look like if they won Best Documentary

documentary on but its not necessarily a family watching think while that had to be a documentary

memory like stories we tell our the act of killing tell me the man ask a question

very early enough film why would anyone want to see a film about an axis is family

00:36:40

are the secrets that exist in why would you want to make that film and the film

film that starts off as a casual remembrance and then becomes you know a berry

very intriguing mystery write a personal mystery but then divided by the end of the movie

become something with no worries for the question the idea of memory and the way we tell store

how stories in the way that you know if I tell you to know that this person is a good person or bad

bad person that has a ripple effect on the rest of the world is it might be a small ripple

might be a pebble in ocean but its is the way the way that language in storytelling

00:37:15

Ellen and rumors can you know true trade in the world for a to make a

how to make a little better or worse Place ebony body wants to try man with a movie that they thought

documentary list and you’ve been able to play a few of those Austin at the at the Art

young ones were we play behind which we had great attendance at a broken circle

Circle yeah which other kind of a local connection because there’s a pretty active Irish music scene in Champaign

Champaign Urbana bluegrass place a big part in that film on but it’s a sad film it really deep

deeply saddened film in the word gets out about that kind of thing in a lot of folks don’t necessarily want to come in

set an affair with something else going to be a really sad even if it’s beautiful we should great beauty which I thought

00:39:00

political thriller that happened to be Palestinian and missing picture is another kind of

what kind of truth Bend bending im a documentary from a really amazing Cambodian film

FileMaker the pond which I’m very much looking forward to well I

one thing I want to mention porn films we brought about the Arts in Macon

this is one way to tone your list Erica’s buy a blank on the other side

00:39:35

Snow White and the another is silent film the new sandwich

falling in the category of the artist and it was it was nice day for that

that that to play at the plate your theater Austin and also show Dallas

fast but it better to help people pay more attention this one this is awesome

call someone on Netflix streaming anyone anyone who loved enjoy the artist

artist with years ago in love that have as a gimmick film should really Blanca Nieves

put that on television you come across in you think that was a film

00:40:10

the film that was actually made in the 1920s really as it is a beautiful score

all behind another telling of Snow White fairytale is what it is

the set of all monster bull fighting so it is the release of unique taken

Akon on the snow white dove fantasy and its or it’s really beautiful really want

really well made film and that was another phone I think blancanieves falling in the footsteps of the ER

the artist and I really like blancanieves a lot of not that hot in the artist the artist have

huge Wednesday marketing campaign behind that is worth what I thought

00:40:45

alright if they were taking baby steps in watching San Antonio can actually just start with Charlie Chaplin you don’t have to

how to start here was blancanieves to me I was left him again and it just use the phone

the forum to tell this really just breathtaking story what I want to bring back in

back in the main topic of why were here on this day at the Academy Awards

Eric Childress Woodstock a bit about who is a prediction to win is Matthew McConaughey

Thomas hey up a lock for Best Actor Impreza near La Casita possibly get

did the last 2 years with most actors with kill to have the runs

00:41:20

the run that he’s had an influence on stomach on a Tuesday making the perfect choice is

Joyce’s working with directors in Woodbridge Linkletter in an Winfrey can

an object Nichols matching mother leader of a really a wonderful family

entirely on and on what are you doing on HBO true detective the run Houston

Mason ever won before but it’s my time is your thing doesn’t Pretty player is your ally

is there a little pretty close to your lock is well yeah yeah I think you probably maybe even more so

more so I don’t really take a really strong upset Autotech made of

is really start of dominated the word season I think of American hustle had

had the 3rd of the momentum and have the other like a week after the afternoon America

American hustle might be taken away from gravity in 12 years a slave

00:42:30

Bradley Cooper might have a chance at the stealing a softer but the jelly donut

Golden Globe speech wasn’t there anything to write home about people have forgotten

forgot about that so that they can have no problem Florida man and the

what’s got a couple other category is it with me to talk about the about American hustle and Jennifer

Jennifer Lawrence at the odds against her about trying to win two years in a row in

and the fact that the faculty won last year in and maybe the fact that

just have so many nominees are ready yeah I think if you have one last year I think she

00:43:05

think she did she didn’t want to pick this year and this actually been a very seesaw battle between her legs

Longo for 12 years a slave all the both of them split salsa

are the major precursor to come up today on and on bench leaving

5149 split come down to the fact that the 5 actors truck

history that ever won back to back Oscars and as you know it’s hot is Jennifer Lawrence

Florence’s right now and she’s just a third of a nomination she’s 23 years old

Sears old is patient going out pace male stripper how many nominations Sheehan
